Introduction The Bar Metropolitan, part of The Met x Eichholtz collection, draws inspiration from the sleek lines of The Met's front steps. This piece evokes the elegance of historical artisanship with an open-grain veneer and an antiqued mirror. Its design seamlessly blends into your modern living space. Historic provenance: With influences from The Metropolitan Museum of Art and New York City, the Bar Metropolitan takes its design cues from The Met's instantly recognizable architecture and the iconic steps leading up to the Museum. The Ba recalls the scale and grandeur of The Met's Beaux-Arts entryway and Great Hall, as well as the Museum's many artworks and objects and the way in which they're presented. The collection also looks to the city's iconic skyline, capturing its artistic and dynamic spirit.
